The Awkward Adages of Geektopia is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Nijchhōh I with an even hand, and notable for its prohibition of alcohol, avowedly heterosexual populace, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 11.748 billion Kwandoites are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Administration, and Law & Order. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Mordecai. The average income tax rate is 96.8%.

The frighteningly efficient Geektopian economy, worth a remarkable 4,404 trillion cryptos a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Information Technology, Retail, Woodchip Exports, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 374,880 cryptos, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.3 times as much as the poorest.

The study of quantum physics has been outlawed for fear of accidentally causing the end of the world, the annual Adult Film Awards have a category for most titillating aftershave advert, the military refers to helpless combatants offering surrender as "sitting ducks", and human resources employees have time for hobbies as harassment is designated "high praise". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Geektopia's national animal is the ass, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Math.

Geektopia is ranked 36,069th in the world and 130th in Europeia for Largest Populations, with 11.7 billion capita.
